Wootton Wawen Platform

Wootton Wawen was another original 1908 station albeit of a
more modest level of accommodation compared to some of the other stations on
the line. The station was deemed by the GWR not important enough to warrant
goods facilities probably because Henley in Arden, Bearley and Stratford Upon
Avon were not too far away. Access to the station was via separate footpaths to
each platform leading down from the road that passed over the line. The absence
of a passengers footbridge or barrow crossing meant a long walk round from one
platform to another should it be required indicating the simple service that
the GWR expected to provide.
